Gotta catch them all...

(Oh, is that a misplaced set of ellipses I see? That might have annoyed the next poster. Whoops.)

Acting like 4chan is the center of the Internet.

Bringing pony into non-pony discussions/threads. Unless baited. Then the gloves are off.

All the bizarre typing styles people use. Is it seriously that hard to type like a normal, sane human being (whatever that is, I guess)?

But most of all, I reserve a spot in the special hell for people who misuse ellipses, especially those that use ellipses instead of all other forms of punctuation. Seriously, stop it. I read your posts like you're gasping for breath or trailing off listlessly in the middle of sentences, and it's friggin' obnoxious.

When I was reorganizing my inventory to fit all by books on life and death into various bags and things, I looked at my inventory and saw that I was multigrasping a necromancer slab.  It was pretty hilarious.
I think that would be an excellent way to impart the critical lessons of life and death to the ignorant masses.

Goats will ignore your grass and eat the neighbours' roses. They're just evil bastards like that.
Probably thats why they are used with pentagrams on covers of Satanic Black Metal albums.

Cheerleader uses PomPom.

It is not very effective.

Memefication:

The process of taking something unique and novel and repeating it in order to make it mundane and average. Most often applied to jokes.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

 Eh. Nothing wrong with the process of making something catchy. We just lack restraint and imagination to innovate them. Gotta agree about elitism.

 Although technically this thread sorta steps on that toe?

 I'm growing worse at handling negatives here, and the only relative thing for this thread is more a subjective thing than a general issue with anything.

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

I hate people going on and on about Homestuck.

For gods sake I have 30-odd other webcomics I read, I don't have time for another!

... I have issue with people who don't like my overuse of ellipses... and also... more ellipses for all!!! ... :D...

Sorry had to do that. A lot of the time I don't realize that I am just typing out a lot of ellipses until after I post since I sorta do not look at the screen when thoughts come flowing out and instead go into a stream of consciousness mode where the ellipses sorta make sense. In my head it feels more like a dramatic pause than the comma, though that does not excuse me from using them way too damned much and being annoying about it.

Digging's a lot like surgery, see -- you grab the sharp thing and then drive the sharp end of the sharp thing in as hard as you can and then stuff goes flying and then stuff falls out and then there's a big hole and you're done. I kinda wish there was more screaming, but rocks don't hurt so I guess it can't be helped.

Use the colon: it does create a bit of dramatic pausing.
